Hello,

i would like to use promises in my java script code / qml any idea how to do that ? or where i can find an example ?

Thanks !

to be more.precise: new.Promise() in sdk, it will not.work, cause promise is unknown. i expected it to be part of the language

AFAIK JS support in Qt is fairly limited, here is relevant documentation. https://doc.qt.io/qt-5.6/qtqml-javascript-functionlist.html

The list in docs does not mention Promises, so I suppose they're simply not supported.

There are several Javascript Promise implementations out there, see Promises A+.

However, such implementations typically hook into the Javascript scheduler, via setTimeout(). Since this is missing from the QtQml Javascript function list, you probably won't get any implementation to work that requires it. You may need to check the implementations for that, sounds tedious.

On the other hand, I notice there is a QML implementation mentioned in the implementations list, may be worth a look.
